PMDG744 integration

[Ray Proudfoot]

No problem Ray. I hope it works out for you. I find myself switching between the various Boeing airframes as well since I have a more generic desktop setup. The trick is finding decent PM CDU aircraft files, or at least finding the info to make your own.

Hi Thunder,

I've just completed Heathrow-Dubai in the 777-200ER. Apart from having an excess of 60K lbs of fuel on landing it went pretty well and I was pleased with my manual landing. I'm used to the 737-900 and Concorde.

I could do with finding a tutorial on those aircraft config files. The distance is 3100 miles and I used 60000lbs of fuel. Because of the excess on landing that should be closer to 50000lbs or so perhaps.

I've searched in vain for a decent fuel calculator. The only one I can find is that provided with the premium version of vRoute. If there aren't any others I may subscribe to them. I get many of my routes from them anyway and it's a way of repaying that service.

I know many people use it but I've never warmed to it. I use FS Flight Keeper and a few flights, logging all the fuel used should allow me to make an educated guess as to how much to load.

I created a Concorde fuel calculator using the same principle.
